I have nothing against creativity, but just out of curiosity...why is this an issue?

Normally, only the low frequecies (from all sounds) below the crossover frequency are shunted to the subwoofer.  Depending on different factors, this would generally be 80 and 150 hertz (cycles per second).  Of course, there are always exceptions.

If I understand you correctly...if you want sounds that contain frequencies higher than the normal crossover frequency, I would think you'd want a separate channel, with only those sounds, feeding a separate, stand-alone subwoofer.

But then, techinically, it would no longer be a subwoofer....would it?

I assume you are referring to a 2.1 (or 5.1, 7.1, etc.) computer speaker system? As my original answer says, what you are asking is just not possible with this kind of set-up.

It sounds to me that you need to determine why the other sounds are being distorted.
 
Is the output of the Revolta object too loud?
Are your speakers of low quality?
Is there something on these speakers that is rattling when these sounds are played?

its a wonderful filter called an EQ

"its a wonderful filter called an EQ"

That ASSUMES he wanted to alter the sound to force it to play only through the subwoofer, which is not likely and not what he asked.

Depending on the crossover frequency, that may be as low as 80 Hz or less.
